Hi all,
I recently replaced my Laptop hard disk with a new, higher capacity
HDD, with the older HDD now acting as an external, USB hard disk. Now,
I want to access the data in the older HDD stored under the
'Administrator account', but get the message 'access is denied'. Is
there a way I can access this data, without actually making this older
HDD again as an internal HDD and removing the password?

Any suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks
V

You need to seize ownership of these folders. Click Start / Help and look
for help on "ownership" if unsure how to do this.
